Click on the slideshow below to read through the story of the week. I Like Myself by Karen Beaumont is a great self-esteem boosting book which led us to a great discussion about differences.

This was a great way to spend pink day yesterday for "No Bullying". Instead of focusing on the negative behaviors bullies so often have we focused on building positive feelings of acceptance and understanding. ~Melony

A fun library find!The Easter bunny sure did some silly things at our homes this Easter. From pooping on the carpet to nibbling on carrots in the fridge, he was a busy bunny. I found this book to go along with our silly stories about other things animals should not be doing. Karin Ireland is an interesting writer with a wild imagination. The children were entertained by this story and wanted to read it again and again.

This is a great book to help children learn about numbers in a fun way. We each adopted a little duck for the day and used it to act out this story by Eric Carle.

Visit amazon to purchase this book by Stella Blackstone. The children enjoyed the illustrations of different parts of the world. The rhyming story fit in perfectly to our discussion about the world and our ongoing learning of numbers.
